VPI 10.5i JMR Memorial Arm w/Nordost Valhalla wiring and Soundsmith Counterintuitive Weight - Exceptional Arm

VPI JMW tone arms like this one are rarely offered. Here’s your chance to get one that's totally trick and upgraded with top flight extras. There are many enhancements and accessories including a Soundsmith “Counter Intuitive" counterbalance weight & Nordost Valhalla internal wiring 

The tonearm itself is a designated JMR Memorial model 10.5i. It’s kinda hard to keep up with VPI nomenclature, but this is the in-between length — longer than 9”, shorter than 12” — with a pivot-point to spindle distance of 262mm. Importantly, it provides precise and easy VTA/SRA adjustment DURING PLAY. Mounting is simple, requiring only 3 small bolts. The arm base will accept one of the new JMW 3D printed arms as well.

The uni-point assembly is sharp as a needle. VPI doesn’t make a big deal about this but the pivot point in any uni-pivot arm eventually gets duller, and you can hear the difference. This one'e tight and true.

The Soundsmith "Counter Intuitive" weight makes it delightfully easy to INDEPENDENTLY adjust your VPI tonearm to the exact tracking force and azimuth for optimal alignment, and to return to that setting easily and quickly. Peak performance done simply. Calibrated scales allow quick tweaking for accurate comparison of different settings.

Each "Intuitive" is carefully hand machined for a precision fit out of a thermally stable, highly damped polymer material, with installed brass weights. Designed to last a lifetime.

Add to this package a Nordost Valhalla internal factory wiring kit and its a super tricked out custom arm with ALL the extra goodies and by the most trusted manufacturers in the analog space. Just a fabulous arm.
